  • The Kills [Performance & Interview Only]
    Apr 30 2024

    On the show this time, it’s a stripped down performance from post-garage rockers The Kills.

    The Kills met back in the late 90’s when singer Alison Mosshart was staying in London during a tour with a previous band, and met her upstairs neighbor Jamie Hince. She loved his guitar playing and insisted that they be in a band together. That didn’t happen right away, but they kept in touch, and began writing together, and sharing 4 track demos of stuff, from when they were apart. Once her band broke up, Alison moved to London, and the band that would become The Kills formed in 2001, recording as VV and Hotel until they picked the band name. They play hard hitting heavy music, with one foot in bluesy garage rock, the other in epic cinematic noir-pop. It’s glitzy and dirty and always so dang cool. Their latest album is 'God Games' and it is available on Domino.

    Recorded 02/07/2024.

  • Glasser [Performance & Interview Only]
    Apr 23 2024

    On the show this time, it’s the experimental electronic pop of producer and singer-songwriter Glasser.

    Glasser is the project name for California based singer, composer and producer Cameron Mesirow. She released 'Apply' - her first EP under that name back in 2009. She’s been working at her own pace ever since, and developing her sound, an original blend of electronic and dance music, with influence from folk traditions, dream pop, trance, jazz and even spoken word. It’s all tied together by her nimble, melodic singing voice. Her latest is called “crux” and is available on One Little Independent.

    Recorded 12/20/2023.

    1. Mass Love
    2. Defeat
    3. Vine
    4. Ophrys
    5. Drift
